Answer:

Sub America's net income for the year is A. $42,500

Explanation:

Return on assets (ROA) helps an investor see how much after-tax profit a company gained for each dollar in assets, is calculated by formula:

ROA = Net Income/  Average Total Assets

In there:

Average Total Assets = (Beginning Assets + Ending Assets )/2 = (Assets at the beginning of year  +Assets at end of year )/2

In Sub America,

Average Total Assets = ($400,000+$450,000)/2 = $425,000

ROA = 10%

Net income = ROA x Average Total Assets  = 10% x $425,000 = $42,500
